Nationwide Development: Spend Billions in Advance to Bind the Empress

Chapter 104 Brother Yun, you're so naughty! (I've been caught in the rain before...)

Meanwhile, in the rear area of ​​Yancheng.

Sure enough, a large number of monsters emerged from the ground to cover the rear and prevent the people in the city from escaping.

Before the beast horde could rush into the city, a gigantic five-tailed white fox appeared in the void.

The oppressive aura emanating from their bloodline poured down, causing the intelligent beings among the beast horde to tremble in fear.

"Such strong bloodline suppression! How can there be a powerful expert here?!"

"This is a tough problem!"

Bai Xian'er stared at the various expressions on the faces of the beasts below and coldly shouted:

"To associate with traitors!! Die!!!"

As soon as she finished speaking, her aura surged, and a nine-tailed fox, radiating divine light and blotting out the sky, appeared behind her!

Immediately afterwards, a huge black gash suddenly tore open in front of the herd, like a monster's gaping maw swallowing the beasts.

"Racial supernatural power?!" The beast leader looked at the mysterious nine-tailed fox in the void and turned to run without thinking.

Bloodline suppression can still be countered by having more people.

But the power of racial supernatural abilities is astonishing; they are just a group of ordinary demonic beasts, how could they withstand it!

"Fellow Daoist Viper, why are you running away! The battle has already begun ahead!!" This blatant disregard for the contract infuriated the three black-robed figures hidden among the beasts, almost causing them to curse.

Once the people here run out to report the news, the battle will need to be fought quickly! This will reduce the time they have to collect the souls, and their gains will inevitably shrink.

"You were the ones who said there were no strong people here!" The snake demon didn't even turn its head.

"Fellow Daoist Viper, this was just an accident!" The cultivators from the Evil Soul Palace cried out in alarm.

"We're willing to pay more...you!!"

"So noisy!!"

Snapped! ! !

A flash of black light, and the viper's tail lashed out, sending the three flying into the black hole behind them, before it fled at full speed.

But Bai Xian'er had already decided to kill them; how could she allow them to escape?: "Void Exile!!"

The giant nine-tailed fox in the sky flashed with a ghostly light in its eyes, and the void in front of and behind the beast horde was instantly torn apart, revealing a huge black hole once again!

"No!!!" The viper demon lost its footing and fell into the pit with terror in its eyes.

"You are also a demon! You betrayed the demon race and will surely die a horrible death!!"

I curse you with a doomed old age!!!

"Hmph, your incompetent roar is nothing!" Bai Xian'er smirked.

Under normal circumstances, she would have let them go since they were both demons. But these demons were actually colluding with the Evil Soul Hall, treacherous and wanting to slaughter the innocent people in the city.

Then they should be killed!

A moment later, there were no more demonic beasts in the arena, and the strange phenomena of the Heavenly Demon Fox in the crack and void also disappeared.

Bai Xian'er flashed and arrived beside Shen Yun.

Looking at the densely packed monster cores on the ground ahead, she swallowed hard.

"Wow, so many~..."

This should be enough for her to absorb for a while.

"Just open your belly!" Shen Yun took a deep breath to calm the turbulent energy surging within him from the exertion.

"Thank you, Brother Yun." Bai Xian'er affectionately rubbed her head against the back of his hand.

"There's no need to thank me," Shen Yun said jokingly. "You're willing to give me your life, so what's a few monsters?"

"Brother Yun~!" Bai Xian'er was so embarrassed by these words that she almost couldn't stand up.

Because these were her heartfelt words when she was emotional, and she regretted them afterwards.

Because Shen Yun has completely gone mad!

If it weren't for the fact that the other party's cultivation was showing signs of a breakthrough, she would have felt like she was about to ascend to heaven.

How could Bai Xian'er possibly accept being teased so openly to her face?

Seeing Shen Yun approach with a mischievous grin, Bai Xian'er let out a soft moan and slipped into her beast-taming space.

"Brother Yun, you're so naughty~!"

"Hahahaha!" Shen Yun laughed heartily, flashed to the battlefield, and with a wave of his hand, put more than 20,000 monster cores and cards into his beast taming space.

There are many, but the quality is poor; there are only ten fifth-tier monsters and thirty-six fourth-tier monsters.

That would have been enough to massacre the entire city of Yancheng, but for him, the gains were only so-so.

There are nearly a thousand monster ability cards, ranging from Tier 1 to Tier 5!

"We should share some with Qin Shitong when we get back, as a company reward..."

Since the city was not destroyed and the monsters did not slaughter humans, the number of item feedback cards dropped was less than five hundred.

Shen Yun was too lazy to check the quality, so he took them all out and performed a large-scale fusion.

[Ding! Congratulations, player, you have successfully synthesized a Tier 6 Low-grade Item Feedback Card*1.]

[Ding! Congratulations to the player for successfully synthesizing a Tier 6 low-grade item...]

After the synthesis was completed, Shen Yun obtained four low-grade sixth-tier cards, one mid-grade sixth-tier card, and four fifth-tier cards.

As for the remaining dozen or so cards, they are all low-level cards of different grades.

"The task of synthesizing an Emperor Weapon is arduous and long-term..." Shen Yun shook his head.

If you were to exchange just one Tier 1 card for a Semi-Saint level, you would need nearly ten million Tier 1 cards!

Therefore, while it may seem that killing multiple monsters at once can yield a lot of cards, it is far less cost-effective than hunting high-level monsters.

Of course, the prerequisite is that the monster has actively eaten a human before the [Item Feedback Card] will be generated.

However, feeding living people with captive monsters will be detected by the system, so there is no chance of a feedback card being triggered.

After accepting the card, Shen Yun saw Li Youran emerge from the ground with a bright smile, riding a digging worm: "Congratulations, Mr. Shen, on your great harvest!!"

She made a fortune today!

Not only have all of his dozens of Gu worms advanced to higher levels, but he also has a warehouse full of collected demon beast blood underground!

Unfortunately, she didn't have the same storage space as Shen Yun, so she could only stay here and raise insects for the time being.

"Congratulations to you too." Shen Yun glanced at the car approaching from ahead, thought for a moment, and said:

"You haven't joined the Demon Suppression Division, have you?"

"No." Li Youran shook her head.

It's good to have a powerful backer, and she also wanted to join the Demon Suppression Division, where the benefits and treatment were much more convenient than working hard on her own.

However, she followed the path of unorthodox cultivation, and even though she maintained her true nature, outsiders were unaware of it.

Once discovered, she will be categorized as one of the most heinous criminals.

"If I vouch for you, would you be willing to join?" Shen Yun asked. "Of course, you can continue to keep your cultivation a secret, but you can use the benefits of the Demon Suppression Division to support yourself."

For a rogue cultivator, joining the Demon Suppression Division is a good choice.

Especially Shen Yun, who was reborn, knew the benefits of joining the group after experiencing a life on the run.

Upon hearing this, Li Youran immediately nodded:

"I am willing!"

If she doesn't have to reveal that she's a Gu cultivator, she has no reason to refuse joining the Demon Suppression Division!

"Okay." Shen Yun directly transmitted his voice to Han Xin, who was in the carriage not far away:

"Commander Han, there's someone here who wants to join the Demon Suppression Division. Could you introduce him? It's best not to let outsiders know. After all, I've killed so many demons; there's no guarantee they won't retaliate. We need to be careful in the near future..."

He didn't mention the matter of the Evil Soul Hall; the less these people knew, the safer they would be.

Seeing him turn to leave, Li Youran spoke softly:

"Mr. Shen, why...why did you help me?"

Shen Yun turned and glanced at her, then chuckled softly:

"Maybe I've been caught in the rain before, so I wanted to help you out. Consider it an act of kindness on my part."

After saying that, he turned and left, disappearing into the night.

"Thank you..." Li Youran lowered her head slightly, her eyes red and her cheeks clenched tightly.

This was the first time she had felt care from others since her family fell apart.

Moreover, Shen Yun knew that her cultivation methods were insidious, yet he was still willing to help her.

'Young lady, you should secretly return to the city first, and we'll talk in detail later.'

"Phew~!" Han Xin's telepathic message brought Li Youran back to her senses.

"Mr. Shen, if I have the chance in the future, I will definitely repay your kindness today!" Composing himself, Li Youran controlled the soil-digging Gu worm to slip underground.

Han Xin's convoy also turned back to Yancheng.

The sound of the car engine gradually faded into the distance.

Silence returned to the world, leaving only a long black hole in the sky healing itself. The massive impact zone on the ground testified to the battle that had just taken place.

Whew!

Inexplicable.

A chilling wind swept across the battlefield, seemingly dispelling the lingering stench of blood...
